It Appears Mitt Will Give "The Mormon Speech"

Michael Luo of the New York Times reports that it appears that Mitt Romney will give "The Mormon Speech" that is to be titled "Faith in America". Luo notes that it is scheduled to be given this Thursday at the George H.W. Bush Library in College Station, Texas.

And this from the Romney camp.

“Governor Romney has made a decision to deliver a speech titled “Faith in America.”“The governor has been invited to The George Bush Presidential Library in College Station, Texas to deliver this address on Thursday, December 6.“This speech is an opportunity for Governor Romney to share his views on religious liberty, the grand tradition religious tolerance has played in the progress of our nation and how the governor’s own faith would inform his Presidency if he were elected.“Governor Romney understands that faith is an important issue to many Americans, and he personally feels this moment is the right moment for him to share his views with the nation.”“Governor Romney personally made the decision to deliver this speech sometime last week.“While identifying a venue for this address, the campaign consulted with President George H.W. Bush’s office last week about Governor Romney’s decision. President Bush was gracious enough to extend an invitation to deliver the speech at the presidential library.“The invitation to speak at the presidential library is not an endorsement of Governor Romney’s campaign.-Kevin Madden, Romney for President campaign spokesman

This should be interesting!
